  • config {'draw_task'} and 'draw_wpcyl' to change default behaviour in fvw
  • Additional info and altitude calibration can be saved in .gpi file
  • Additional flight Info dialog (pilot/date/etc)

  • Oxygen debriefing in FlightStatistics (according to FAR 91.211)
  • corrupt igc file reversed-time-bug fixed
  • pressure and pO2 in fvw
  • pressure altitude (reference 1013.25) (needs known QNH)
